Lasso Round The Moon is a novel written by Norwegian author Agnar Mykle. The book tells the story of a young man named Ask Burlefot who grows up in a small village in Norway. Ask is a dreamer and a poet, and he struggles to find his place in the world. As he grows older, he becomes more and more disillusioned with the narrow-mindedness of his community and the constraints of his own life.The novel is set in the years leading up to World War II, and it explores the political and social tensions of the time. Ask becomes involved in left-wing politics and falls in love with a woman named Esther, who shares his ideals. But their relationship is complicated by the fact that Esther is Jewish, and the rise of fascism in Europe threatens to tear them apart.Lasso Round The Moon is a deeply emotional and philosophical novel that explores themes of love, identity, and the search for meaning. Mykle's writing is poetic and lyrical, and he captures the beauty and harshness of life in rural Norway with vivid detail. The novel has been praised for its honesty and its unflinching portrayal of the human condition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
